Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday!

You may remember my recent post last week about using Dove soap and a gentle wash cloth to wash off your makeup. Well this week’s tip is something just as simple yet I think it is another great tip…

Use Dove soap to wash your makeup brushes.

You don’t always need to spend a ton of money on fancy brush cleansers. While I do have several brush cleaners that I enjoy using For years I have been simply using Dove soap to wash my brushes. It is very effective at removing makeup and cleaning my brushes without ruining the brushes.

I keep my Dove soap for my face and the Dove soap for my brushes separate, I store both of them in a plastic travel container. It helps to keep the soap clean and fresh, while preventing it from drying out. While I enjoy the shea butter to wash my face with, the original is my personal favorite for cleaning my brushes.

Let me know if you try it out and what you think!

This week’s tip is something so simple yet I think it is great tip… Use Dove soap to wash off your makeup.

You don’t always need to spend a ton of money on fancy facial cleansers. For years I have been simply using Dove soap with a gentle face cloth to wash my face. It is very effective at removing makeup and cleaning my face without stripping my skin. Dove soap can also be used around the eyes without causing too much irritation.

I keep my soap in a plastic travel container to keep it clean and fresh.

While the original bar is wonderful, I have been recently using the shea butter scent. I find that all of the different scents work well, but the original and shea butter are my personal favorites.

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday!

If you have been around Looking Joli Good for any amount of time, you know that I love long lashes! I never wear false lashes, mostly because the thought of putting glue next to my eyes makes me feel grossed out.

While there are so many great lash-pumping mascaras on the market, you don’t need to spend a ton of money on one of them. Instead, after applying your first coat of mascara quickly dust some translucent powder onto your lashes. Apply a second coat of mascara over the powder and be amazed at how full your lashes look!

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday

I HATE chapped lips!!! I cannot even handle when my lips are dry at all! If you want to exfoliate your lips quickly and easily without using a messy scrub you’ll love this tip…

Simply apply a thick layer of moisturizing lip balm to your lips and let is sit for a good amount of time. I will usually apply it after I brush my teeth when I first wake up and go about my morning routine. Then using a clean dry wash cloth, put your finger into the cloth making a little glove over your finger. Using circular motions rub the balm off your lips exfoliating your lips at the same time. The texture of the wash cloth will work as an exfoliator without having to use any other product. Keep in mind that the lips are a very delicate area, so be sure that you don’t rub too hard!

I hope that you enjoyed this tip!

Here’s another tip for Tip Tuesday.

This week I am going to be talking about…Multi Masking!

I don’t know about you, but all the parts of my face are not created equally! It is kind of annoying! While my forehead and cheeks are very normal my nose is dry and my chin always seems to be the place to break out.

This is where multi masking comes into play! Using a few different types of face masks as the same time you can get what each area of your face needs. By applying a clarifying mask to my chin and a moisturizing mask to my nose and a soothing mud mask to my cheeks and forehead area, I am giving each each part of my face what it needs all at the same time.

There are so many great masks available! I really like the Formula 10.0.6 mud masks. I’ve seen them at both Ulta and at Walgreens.com. They’re great and only around $6-7. Added bonus they smell great and the packaging is super cute too! I also recommend the Queen Helene line of masks two of my favorites are the Grape Seed Extract Peel Off Masque and especially the Mint Julep mask. These are both less than $4.

Hope you enjoy this weeks tip!

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday…

I seriously hate it when I am trying to sharpen a makeup pencil and it keeps breaking!!! (I hate wasting the product in a sharpener!) To prevent this from happening I put it in the freezer 30 minutes before I want to sharpen it. This simple trick helps to makes the tip less likely to crumble and break. If you are going to use the liner right after sharpening just soften it up a bit by drawing a quick line or two on the back of your hand.

I tend to set aside a time to sharpen all my dull liners at the same time, so I will throw them all into the freezer at the same time and set a timer for 30 minutes and then sharpen them all at once

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesday…

I always tend to apply my foundation and concealer first and then my eye makeup. Unfortunately, this often results in fall out creating what looks like dark shadows under my eyes (not the look I am going for!)

Instead, after my foundation, I have recently been starting with eye makeup and then applying my concealer afterwards. That way, I can easily clean up any eye shadow that falls below my eyes. I also soak a cotton swab or two in makeup remover to have on hand to quickly and easily clean up any of the left over fall out. To finish, I apply my concealer under my eyes for a bright perfect under eye area.

Here is another quick tip for Tip Tuesdays…

Think outside the makeup box

Invest in a good matte taupe eye shadow like Urban Decay Buck, Bobbie Brown Taupe, The Balm Matt Patel from the Meet Matte palette, or one of my favorites Taupe from the Lorac Pro Palette. You don’t just have to use that matte taupe eye shadow in your crease or on your eyelids. You can use a matte taupe eye shadow to fill in brows, line eyes, and even blend under your cheekbones for a quick and easy contour.

PS: No affiliate links in this post, just a bunch of links to help you know what types of shadows I am talking about 😉

Here is another tip for Tip Tuesdays…

On quick “5 Minute Makeup” or “No Makeup Makeup” days all you need is blush, mascara, lipgloss, and bronzer!

When I want to look natural or get ready quickly, I love to sweep a bit of bronzer into my crease. It adds some nice depth without taking a lot of time or having to use eyeshadow.
